"Are you sure?" Angelina Johnson asked as her mother explained to her now
to get through the barrier. "excuse me," a lady said as she tapped Mrs.
Johnson on the shoulder. Angelina and her mother turned to see eight red-
heads. "Are you using the platform?" The woman asked. "Oh, yes, I'm
sorry, I was just telling Angie here how to get through it. Off you go
them." Angelina's mom replied. Angelina ran at the barrier, and shut her
eyes. She expected to hit something, although her mother assured her she
wouldn't. One second she was in the muggle world, the next she was on
Platform 9 3/4. Her mother followed her onto the platform.
About ten minutes later, all Angelina's belongings were on the train, and she was saying good-bye to her mother. As she pulled out of the hug, she noticed the red-heads. There were two kids who looked rather sad that their older bothers were all going off to Hogwarts and they were being left behind. Then there were two twins, probably about Angelina's age. It looked as if their mom was giving them a lecture. There was one boy who looked more interested in telling people off than to his mom, and there were two older children, probably in their mid-teens. One stayed behind.
Angelina boarded the train and went off on a search for an empty compartment. When she couldn't find one, she asked a girl about her age if she could sit with her. They introduced themselves, then talked about quidditch. Angelina Johnson and Alicia Spinnet because friends fast.
"Hello ladies, may we grace you with our presence?" Someone asked, walking in the compartment. Angelina looked up and saw two boys standing there. Angelina recognized them as the two red-head twins she saw on the platform. "Yeah, whatever, but first, empty your pockets," Alicia replied boredly, also looking up. The twin on the right took out a dungbomb from each pocket. "You too Fred," Alicia said sternly. Fred sighed and also took out a dungbomb from each compartment in his robes. "Angelina, this is Fred and George Weasley. Fred and George, this is Angelina Johnson. Out parents are friends, so we've known each other for a long while," Alicia explained to Angelina. Fred gave Angelina and appraising look and said, "Nice too meet you." "You too," Angelina replied. Most of the train ride was directed towards quidditch, with Fred and George sharing tips from their brothers.
When the train ride was over, and they were close to the school, all the first years were called over by a giant man named Hagrid. He directed the students towards boats which they were to ride across the lake to get to the school. Angelina and Alicia were in a boat with the Weasley twins and a boy who introduced himself as Lee Jordan. Once they got to the school, they were lead through the dungeon to get to the Great Hall. Before they entered, a professor came up and explained about the sorting ritual. The students were finally allowed to walk between the tables to get the hat.
First up was a girl by the name of Cho Chang. She, and her follower, Roger Davies, were placed in Ravenclaw. A few more names were called, then Cedric Diggory was called up. Every girls' eyes were on him with interest, hoping he'd be in their house. A few names later, a rather ugly boy with crookard teeth was called up as Marcus Flint. Next up was Angelina Johnson. Many boys looked with interest as she was sorted into Gryfindor. Angelina waited eagerly as Alicia Spinnet was called up. A few minutes later, Alicia was sitting by Angelina's side at the Gryfindor table. Fred and George Weasley were the last two to go as they too were accepted into Gryfindor with all their brothers. They sat down next to their new friend, Lee Jordan, and were congratulated by all their brothers.
Dumbledore annoced the start of term regulations, then ordered the feast to begin. Angelina mostly talked to Alicia, Fred, George, and Lee. Fred introduced Angelina and Lee to his brothers. Then, Charlie introduced the five to the rest of the Gryfindor Quidditch Team. When the feast was done, the prefects lead the students to their houses. By the time they got there, it was past 10 o'clock and classes started the following morning. Almost everyone went straight to bed.
